I love isolated movements. They’re often ‘on blast’ for not being functional. I believe we should fight this blasting and SHAMING! If you’re not sure what they are: think of movements that only target one joint, and typically one muscle group (bicep curl for instance). As opposed to functional movements that move multiple joints. These are considered more functional because they mimic more closely actions of sport and life. Side note: I also love compound / functional moveme...nts. They should probably be the core of anyone’s personal training diet. They are hugely important. But saying that isolated movements are not functional is simply wrong. Research has shown that lying leg curls, for example, increase sprinting speed. Bodybuilders know the usefulness of isolation work to achieve their goals. Injured athletes also know the usefulness of isolation work. What if you hurt your shoulder and can’t do pull-ups? Should you avoid bicep curls because they don’t fit your idea of functional? They still strengthen your elbow joints, wrists, biceps, and forearms. Likely there are numerous physiological benefits to training the bicep curl for the healing process as well. Isolating a muscle or muscle group for increased size and strength IS functional. This is generally true for all muscles. The bigger and stronger the muscle, the more force it can produce, assuming you dedicate enough time to the functional movement or action you’re trying to improve. Also, no shame in feeling AND looking better. @bretcontreras1 has a book titled, ‘Glute Lab.’ Beginning this year I’ve started to program more isolation work. I feel amazing. This inspired me to finally purchase and read Glute Lab.

#Rolling. I might be tempted to go into a bunch of heady language and fluff about #movement, and #neurology. Do some theorizing about all of the potential benefits. Instead, I’ll just say that it feels good. This is a #novelmovement, and it fed my nervous system today. I’ve definitely taken clients through rolling patterns before. Usually when experimenting with balance issues and painful conditions. Is it a regular part of my training or warm-up? No. But it’s pretty fun. #massagetherapist #personaltraining #empowerslo #functionaltraining
